Hardly the kind of post expected after a vacation.. I agree.
A chance meeting with a close friend,surviving the trauma of a broken relationship, triggered off this most disconcerting affirmation. If there is one sphere of modern life which has witnessed such huge fluctuations in intensity, it is relationships. (more…)
Hey Guys,
Miss you too.
Meanwhile, I suggest you go to this e-mag by Kavita Chhibber.
Not only is it a great read, but Kavita is one of the most loving, caring and warm human beings I have had the good fortune to encounter. That she is an erudite journalist is a given and only contributes to the success of her mag.
More Power to you Kavita..(psst..is it a mere coincidence that kavi/eetas are err..nice?)
So go on and visit the site.
Even on vacation I had a quick ‘dekho’.. could not resist it.
Lazy, langurous, lush mornings
Cool, chirpy and calm.
afternoons lulling peacefully
in Natures warm embrace.
Candle-lit, aroma-ed, delectable evenings,
with memories of sun-kissed sand.
The search continues unabated
Reading
Long into the night.
Hey Guys.. you guessed right…Am on vacation
Will be back soon.
One has often wondered at the truism of the statement ‘You are your relationships’. An all encompassing canvas here. Includes, marriage partners, partners at work, social acquaintances, friends and siblings.
The other wisecrack that has vindicated itself from ancient times right down to our present is “God gave us our relatives, thank God we can choose our friends”. Cynically true.So the fact that we were born under a particular set of circumstances, with a designated family, extended family, locality, state, nation, is of greater significance than we care to imagine. We can better it (by choosing our friends{wicked smirk}) cannot reverse it. (more…)
India, the land of mystics and mysticism, snakes and snake charmers, elephants and mahouts, Maharishis and Maharajas.
While all of the above fail to make news any more and are nearly as extinct as the soon to be ‘black buck’ of Salman Khan fame..what lives on is Sati- a ritual where the widow burns herself on the funeral pyre of her husband. (more…)
